Title:
/usr/share/applications/alien-arena.desktop missing since precise
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Confirmed
Status in alien-arena package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in alien-arena package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
Package alien-arena version7.53+dfsg-1: amd64 i386 (precise), had the file:
/usr/share/applications/alien-arena.desktop
Version 7.66+dfsg-2: amd64 i386 of the package (trusty, utopic, vivid, wily)
does not have the file above packcaged
As a consecuence, on the latter Alien Arena can only be started from the
command line, not from the start menu.
I have experienced this but in lubuntu vivid 32bit, but I am sure this is the
case in any other distro using this same package version.
My feeling is that alien-arena should be repackaged with the
/usr/share/applications/alien-arena.desktop file included.
I solved my problem downloading alien-arena package version 7.53+dfsg-1
(precise's)
http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/i386/alien-arena/download
I unpacked manually the file to an empty folder
and copied the missing file
:~$ sudo cp -iv Downloads/usr/share/applications/alien-arena.desktop
/usr/share/applications/
No need to restart or refresh anything, the new start menu entry will be:
games > Alien Arena.
